Abstract

Thousands of research papers on rough set theory and its applications have been published since Pawlak’s seminal work Rough Sets in 1982. A large number of rough sets papers were published in proceedings of conferences such as the International Conference on Rough Sets and Current Trends in Computing (RSCTC); International Conference on Rough Sets, Fuzzy Sets, Data Mining, and Granular Computing (RSFDGrC); International Conference on Rough Sets and Knowledge Technology (RSKT); International Conference on Rough Sets and Intelligent Systems Paradigms (RSEISP); and more recently, merged International Joint Conference on Rough Sets (IJCRS). The aim of this paper is to analyse the influences and impact of rough set conference papers using Scientometrics approaches based on the information obtained from Web of Science. The results suggest that rough set conference papers have an impact in research which is similar to other computer science domains.
